What is Faculty Success?
Faculty Success is a secure, web-based application your institution uses to collect, manage, and report on faculty accomplishments. It stores details about your teaching, research, service, professional development, grants, awards, and more. Your institution relies on this data for accreditation, internal reporting, and review processes. By maintaining your profile in Faculty Success, you help ensure that your academic and professional contributions are accurately documented, consistently formatted, and easily accessible for both individual and institutional needs.
Why You’re Being Asked to Use It
You are being asked to use Faculty Success so your activities can be captured in a centralized and structured area. This makes it easier for your institution to meet reporting requirements and for you to participate in processes like annual reviews, promotion, and tenure without being asked to re-enter the same information repeatedly in different locations.
When you keep your information current in My Profile, it becomes easier to tell your story on and off campus.
How to Make the Most of Faculty Success
The most beneficial way to make the most of the system is by keeping your data current. Think of your profile in Faculty Success as your professional portfolio. This is not just for a single report or process. It is a structured record of your academic career. By keeping your profile current, you can:
- Generate tailored CVs for different audiences and opportunities.
- Reuse your data across reports, reviews, and submissions.
- Track the full scope of your teaching, research, and service activities.
- Reduce the time spent preparing materials when deadlines arise
If your institution uses the Review, Promotion, and Tenure (Workflow) module, your profile data will also allow for a seamless review process (such as annual reviews, promotion, and tenure).
